Re: 11/9/13 Game Thread #7: Pacers vs. Nets

I think usually is, but it doesn't have to be. He can have ally he confidence and attitude of a superstar without *****ing to refs.

See, that's the thing. When you are a star or superstar, your attitude is 'I"m the best out here.' So you think that you should be getting the calls. Also, and I honestly think they do this rationally, if you are a star and you make a big deal out of not getting calls, you will get calls in the future. You believe that you can lobby as well or better than your coach can. The league succeeds with superstars, they know that, and so they react to 'differing opinions' in a way they feel appropriate.

I don't necessarily agree, but if he runs back on defense I don't care. I wouldn't stand for the whining even if it led to calls if you're gonna make it 5 v 4
